Choose Your Country
With so many beautiful roses to choose from, finding the right one is easier when you start by type. Shopping roses by type helps Canadian gardeners quickly narrow their choices—whether you’re looking for classic long-stem blooms, easy-care shrubs, or roses that climb, spread, or make a statement in the landscape.
Roses come in many forms, each with its own growth habit, bloom style, and best garden use. By exploring roses by type, you can match the right rose to your space, design goals, and level of care—making it easier to plant with confidence.
For gardeners who love traditional roses with elegant, long stems, hybrid tea and grandiflora roses are timeless choices. These upright plants are known for their large, beautifully shaped blooms, often borne singly or in small clusters. They perform beautifully in cutting gardens and bring classic refinement to both garden and vase throughout the growing season.
If low maintenance and continuous colour are priorities, floribunda, shrub, and landscape roses offer reliable performance. These roses tend to form rounded, bushy plants that bloom in generous clusters, filling garden beds and borders with colour. Their adaptability makes them well suited to a wide range of sunny locations, including mixed borders and container plantings—an advantage in many Canadian gardens.
For gardeners looking to add height, movement, or coverage, climbing, groundcover, and tree roses open up even more design possibilities. Groundcover roses spread gracefully along the garden floor, cascade over walls, and spill beautifully from raised beds and containers. Climbing roses transform fences, trellises, arbors, and gates into flowering features, adding vertical interest and seasonal drama.
Tree roses bring a more formal element to the garden, making striking accents in containers, along walkways, or flanking entrances. Used thoughtfully, these rose types add structure and visual interest while maximizing space.
No matter your garden size or style, there’s a rose type designed to suit it. By choosing roses by type, you can focus on growth habit and garden function first—then enjoy selecting from a wide range of colours, fragrances, and bloom styles.
